Chapter 163: Bloody Battle at the Position

"I, I am!" Chen An said, panting, to the muscular man wearing a hat.

The Catachan Demon wearing a hat looked Chen An up and down, nodded, patted Chen An on the shoulder, and said, "The Emperor has spoken, you all have done very well, being able to hold this position and fight until reinforcements arrived! Rejoice, the great Emperor has come, the nightmare of these Alien Races has come!"

Chen An touched his slightly aching shoulder, smiled, and said, "Thank you for coming to support us, but who is that Emperor?"

"You will know." The Catachan Demon wearing a hat curled his lips and said with a smile, "What is important now is to let these Alien Races suffer the Emperor's wrath!"

Chen An wanted to ask something more, but he saw this muscular man wearing a hat open fire on the Insect Hive in front with the Laser Gun in his hand, and he shouted in a rough voice.

"For the Emperor! Exterminate these Alien Races!"

Only then did Chen An see two trucks transporting ammunition slowly driving up; after all, the road here was entirely gravel and some larger rocks.

"Who are these people? Which unit's soldiers are they?" Chen An hurriedly walked up to a truck driver and asked in a rushed tone.

The truck driver looked at the muscular men who were in a Blood Bath fighting against the Zerg and tutted, "Tsk, these soldiers are truly strong. They are soldiers summoned by a Captain from the Thirteenth Legion. Who would have thought that soldiers summoned by a random Back Spirit could be this formidable!"

At this moment, some artillerymen ran over to move a few crates of Rune Bullets off the truck and left in a hurry.

"Thirteenth Legion? One person can summon so many soldiers? How is this possible?" Chen An looked at the 200-plus muscular men in disbelief and muttered to himself.

"I'll help you unload the ammunition. That's because you didn't see the scene when that Captain summoned the soldiers. After arriving here, we all thought we had come too late and that even if we delivered supplies, it would be of no use. As it turned out, that Captain summoned about 1,000-plus soldiers. I was stunned at the time. The soldiers he summoned even had vehicles similar to tanks, but that unit went to support the other side. They wore gas masks, said nothing, and followed an officer-looking person silently. Then, these are the soldiers you see now."

Chen An moved a crate of ammunition off the truck and exclaimed upon hearing that one person could actually summon so many soldiers, "It's incredible, is this Captain's Spiritual Power a bottomless pit? He can actually sustain the Spiritual Power consumption of so many soldiers?"

The truck driver moved the last crate of ammunition down, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "Not sure, but that guy is tall and strong, probably about 2.7 meters. I still have to go back and continue transporting ammunition to other positions. Take care!"

Chen An nodded, looked at the ammunition supplies that had been transported over, and said, "Rest assured, we will not let these Zerg break through the position!"

Chen An had the surrounding soldiers who had just helped move the ammunition distribute it. At this moment, with the help of that group of muscular men, the defensive line was forcibly held in a stalemate. Those muscular men had no pressure at all dealing with ordinary Swift Bugs, and the tricky Self-Destruct Bugs were blown up by the muscular men responsible for fire cover in the back as soon as they poked their heads out; their reactions could be described as extremely swift.

Soon, in addition to the Mortars of those muscular men, the artillery fire on Chen An's side began again. The disadvantage in ammunition had been replenished, and now it was time to block these Zerg right here!

The mountain on the other side.

After Armand ran out of ammunition, he was using his own Spiritual Power to resist the surging Zerg rushing forward. Facing the Zerg that were endless and could never be killed off, Armand led the soldiers with melee capabilities to defend against the Zerg, praying in his heart that someone would come to save them.

But he knew his thoughts were a bit naive. This Zerg offensive was more powerful than ever before. Without effective artillery coverage, his side definitely wouldn't last long.

"We must hold on! We cannot let these damn Zerg break through the position! For the Human race!"

Armand kept killing the Swift Bugs rushing up and even found time to boost the morale of those around him.

Just at this moment, an explosion occurred in the Zerg swarm not far away, followed by a series of explosions that blasted the Zerg swarm apart, with fragments of Swift Bug bodies flying everywhere. This turn of events surprised Armand; could it be that the ammunition supplies had arrived?

Armand killed the few Swift Bugs around him, withdrew from the engagement range, and saw a group of soldiers wearing gas masks coming from behind him. An officer wearing a high-pointed hat walked up to Armand and said in a serious tone, "By the Emperor's will, exterminate the Alien Races. Your ammunition supplies have arrived."

After finishing, this officer wearing a high-pointed hat shouted to the soldiers behind him, "Men, the Emperor's order. Hold this position, clear all Alien Races! For the Emperor!"

This Krieg Commissar said these words mainly because he was afraid these men would go straight up and fight these Zerg with Bayonets, leading to excessive casualties. Furthermore, this was indeed the Emperor's will.

Armand watched as these masked soldiers silently raised the weapons in their hands and rushed to the position where the Human Alliance soldiers and Zerg were engaged, opening fire and stabbing with Bayonets. With the support of dense artillery fire from the rear, the Swift Bugs on the position were soon mostly wiped out.

Subsequently, these Krieg soldiers fired in an orderly fashion at the Zerg rushing up on the position, and some Krieg soldiers threw Hand Grenades, which exploded in the Zerg swarm.

After Armand arranged for the soldiers in the rear to go get the ammunition supplies, a trace of doubt arose in his heart. When did the Human Alliance have this unit? Looking at the way they fought, they must have already experienced many wars; how could there not have been a single whisper of news about them? It looked like they didn't use Spiritual Power to enhance their physical fitness; was their original physical fitness just that high? Also, who was the Emperor they spoke of?

Armand had many doubts in his heart, but he soon cast the thoughts in his mind away.

Regardless, they were a unit supporting him, and that officer had just said they were also here to hold the position. Plus, the ammunition supplies had been delivered quickly, so his side's position should be held.

Thinking of this, Armand walked up to the officer wearing the high-pointed hat and asked, "We still have two positions that need support. I wonder if..."

"The Emperor has naturally considered such questions; this is not a matter you should be concerned about," the officer wearing the high-pointed hat said to Armand in a cold voice.

Armand, having been rebuffed, had no choice but to command his soldiers to distribute the ammunition they had brought back and vent the anger in their hearts on the Zerg rushing up.
